The 4th of July...

This 4th of July Damon and I decided to do something out of the ordinary - we went to the cities. Yep, we were going the opposite direction of just about everyone in the state of Minnesota! Hard to believe the traffic that we ran into coming up North - a pretty popular place for the 4th of July celebration! :) It makes us glad to live where we do!
We went to a Twins Game (Damon and Anthony's first), had a spectacular display of fireworks from the backyard and ate a Famous Daves! It was a relaxing weekend and
we were glad to be able to spend it with the Hansons!
So here are the pictures of our weekend - enjoy! :)

Yes, we even went out and bought Twins attire! Apparently
you can't show up at a game without... We were trying to get noticed with our gear - it didn't work but we
had a great time and looking great at the same time!

Damon trying on some pre-game gear... he he!There were even a few mice that showed up for the game. Kind of funny... all of a sudden a section is 'doing the wave' as they are trying to get a way from the confused mouse. The group of people are all trying to trap the poor little guy and the boy below is holding up his treasure. There were two mice altogether that were just trying to enjoy the game
before everyone started freaking out!And for the actual July 4th celebration...
Our very skilled fireworks coordinators...

Fireman Mark...And Yes, no celebration is complete without letting a child play with fire -
Uncle Damon was on this task with sparklers! Thank You Hansons for a fun and relaxing weekend! We truly enjoyed ourselves!

What a great post! This weekend was such a fun one and definitely a highlight of our summer. Hopefully there will be more times the three of you will head down and see us.

Looks like you guys had a great time! The boys are anxious to get back down to a Twins game...unfortunately it seems "summer" (is it acutally summer? It does not feel like it!!) is going by much faster than we can keep up!
